Found this and another video on you tube.

Sorry for the late reply. I use Amsoil 10w-40 in my Rover K series. I use 5w-50 in my Cosworth 2.3L Duratec.

Whoa this will be a rare event. Two Rover K series sevens at the event. 👍🎉

I use the VP MS 109. It is unleaded not cheap though.

Sunoco on west Chester pike in Havertown sells it. As does NJMP both are pumps not pails. VP racing in Newark del sells 5 gallon or 55 gallon pails/barrels

Saudio, I have both an S3 and a SV. But it will need to be a warm dry day for me to get all the crap I have piled up behind them out of the way so that I can pull the SV out and lower the S3. The SV has lowered floors the S3 does not. Weather doesn’t look good for the next couple of weeks. How soon do you need to try one? Tom

It does not. Mine is a 2000. When I ordered it the lowered floors did not exist nor did the SV. I removed the seat bottoms and made a bead seat base that pretty much puts you on the floor and I did get a tall FIA roil bar which gets my helmet well below the bar. With the brooklands screens it’s great. And it does get me below the top of the windscreens just barely.

Charlie, @cjbnow that the holiday festivities are almost finished, let’s look for a dry warmish day over the next few weeks. I need to get the SV out of the garage to get into it as it is under the S3 on the lift. I’ll keep a watch on the weather and see if we can coordinate. Tom

I’ll check in with you when I get back. Don’t mind me if I’m still singing. “It’s a small world after all”.

Out of town this week. But can probably find the time when I get back.

So Vlad, did I miss the big announcement? No pictures?

Todd is almost never the biggest horsepower car out there. He often races up in class just to challenge himself. No one, no one can out brake Todd. And he’s a good guy too. Great Drive Todd, can’t wait til you find that 23B of your Dreams. Tom.

I have one of each. So I guess that means I’m Bi. 🤣

Clams Rule!!! 👍

I just got home and unloaded the truck and it looks like I inadvertently picked up someone’s blue Sparco racing suit bag. Let me know who’s it is and I’ll get it back to you. Tom

We had perfect weather, a great group of drivers and several spectators/future owners. A few mechanical issues but all but Dez were able to get their runs in. Today I think everyone had their full share of track time as we got a bonus of a couple double length sessions. Five of us hung around for a beer then dinner and there are just two of us staying the night before heading home. Jay is hard core. Last off the track and will drive his Seven back to Connecticut tomorrow. Real hard core. Thanks to everyone for making the effort to participate. This really is a special opportunity to get our cars out on track and have some fun in a safe fashion. Hopefully we will be allowed to do it again next year. Tom

I quit after 4 runs. Diehards are doing the last one about now. The session after lunch was interesting 😱😱😱. They decided to let the open wheel group run with us because they had both of their earlier seasons cut short due to the F1 car spinning out and stalling in both sessions. The interesting part is that we didn’t know that and these guy’s weren’t waiting for pointbys. It certainly got you looking in the mirrors a lot more.

Having done a few fiberglass repairs over the years. It’s not difficult or too costly. West marine had a nice fiberglass repair kit that has most of what you need. Minus the sand paper. Those cracks don’t look to difficult to fix. The expensive part is the painting. Give it a try. Nothing to lose. Tom

One week away now. Looks like we have a definite fourteen with a potential of a couple more if they get their rears in gear. We met the new Drivers Club Director yesterday on his first day in the job and he’s a good guy who will work with Croc on setting up the run group details. We will try to set up in the large event garage as we have in the past depending on when we are allowed into the paddock as there is another event going on on Saturday. We have reservations for a dinner at the Pub out by the pool on Saturday for those who are arriving on Saturday. Safe Travels Tom

We will miss you Mike. I still can’t believe you are driving around in a Miata. How embarrassing. 😝. I hope you come to your senses and buy your fourth Se7en. we are less than two weeks away from the event now. Those of you still fettling with your cars need to turn up the wick and Get R Done. See you soon. Tom.

Congratulations. Hopefully we will see you at NJMP in a few weeks. Tom

Another plus is that there are a few people there with experience and skill to help out. When Jeff broke a front wheel hub, I had a spare that was back ar my house. Someone made the trip to pick it up and he got it installed and only lost a session or two as I live about an hour and a half from the track. So definitely give it a shot if you are able. Tom

Four weeks to go until our Sevens Gathering at NJMP. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Hopefully Croc will be allowed back into the country in time. Hopefully Simon can keep his current engine intact until then. Hopefully Roman can get his car out of storage, Hopefully Steve is hard at work polishing his car to its usual mirror gloss. And Hopefully all coming have a safe uneventful drive to the track. Make sure your belts are in date, and your Helmet too, although I think they still have some rentals available. See you all soon Tom

@spindr Yes the green group is a paced lap behind a pace car with no passing. The White/Blue group is an intermediate group with passing only on the straights with a point by. See you in a few weeks. Tom
